In other words, the electrodes 154 partially overlap the first opening region 170 a, the second opening region 170 b, the third opening region 170 c, and the fourth opening region 170 d respectively. The “overlap” described in the disclosure refers to overlap in a direction perpendicular to the substrate 110 (in the top view).

A reset signal is inputted to the gate G of the first thin film transistor T_(r). One of the first end S and the second end D of the first thin film transistor T_(r) (e.g., the first end S of the first thin film transistor T_(r)) and one of the first end S and the second end D of the second thin film transistor Tai, the second thin film transistor T_(d2), the second thin film transistor T_(d3), or the second thin film transistor T_(d4) are electrically coupled to a node (not shown). The first thin film transistor T_(r) may reset the voltage of the node according to the reset signal, so as to reset a light emitting status of the first opening region 170 a, the second opening region 170 b, the third opening region 170 c, or the fourth opening region 170 d.

Referring to FIG. 1, the conductive line 152 extends along a first direction x. The first opening region 170 a and the second opening region 170 b are arranged along the first direction x. The third opening region 170 c and the first opening region 170 a are adjacent to each other (“adjacent” is defined as that no other opening region exists on the shortest connection line between two opening regions), and the third opening region 170 c and the second opening region 170 b are adjacent to each other. The area of the first opening region 170 a is less than the area of the third opening region 170 c. The area of the second opening region 170 b is less than the area of the third opening region 170 c. As shown in FIG. 2, the area of the first opening region 170 a, the area of the second opening region 170 b, and the area of the third opening region 170 c respectively refer to the area of a bottom portion 173 of the first opening region 170 a, the area of a bottom portion 173 of the second opening region 170 b, and the area of a bottom portion 173 of the third opening region 170 c. The conductive line 152 is located between the first opening region 170 a and the third opening region 170 c. The conductive line 152 is electrically coupled to the first thin film transistor T_(r) via the first contact hole 142, and the first contact hole 142 is located between the first opening region 170 a and the second opening region 170 b. In this embodiment, the first opening region 170 a and the second opening region 170 b are arranged along the first direction x to form a first row, and the fourth opening region 170 d and the third opening region 170 c are arranged along the first direction x to form a second row. The first row may be adjacent to the second row. The second opening region 170 b is adjacent to the third opening region 170 c, and the second opening region 170 b is adjacent to the fourth opening region 170 d. The area of the fourth opening region 170 d may be larger than the area of the first opening region 170 a and the area of the second opening region 170 b and less than the area of the third opening region 170 c. In this embodiment, the conductive line 152 may also be located between the second opening region 170 b and the third opening region 170 c, between the second opening region 170 b and the fourth opening region 170 d, and between the first opening region 170 a and the fourth opening region 170 d. In a word, the conductive line 152 is a bent line that bypasses the first opening region 170 a, the second opening region 170 b, the third opening region 170 c, and the fourth opening region 170 d, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the light from the first opening region 170 a (e.g., the light emitted by the organic electroluminescent pattern 161) may have the same color as the light from the second opening region 170 b (e.g., the light emitted by the organic electroluminescent pattern 162), and the light from the first opening region 170 a may have a different color from the light from the third opening region 170 c (e.g., the light emitted by the organic electroluminescent pattern 163). The light from the fourth opening region 170 d (e.g., the light emitted by the organic electroluminescent pattern 164) may have a different color from the light from the third opening region 170 c. For example, the color of the light from the first opening region 170 a, the color of the light from the second opening region 170 b, the color of the light from the third opening region 170 c, and the color of the light from the fourth opening region 170 d may be green, green, blue, and red respectively, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

It should be noted that the first contact hole 142 and the first opening region 170 a are separated by a first distance D1. The first distance D1 is the shortest distance between the first contact hole 142 and the first opening region 170 a. More specifically, the first distance D1 refers to the shortest distance between a vertical projection of a bottom portion 174 of the first contact hole 142 on the substrate 110 and a vertical projection of the bottom portion 173 of the first opening region 170 a on the substrate 110. The first contact hole 142 and the second opening region 170 b are separated by a second distance D2. More specifically, the second distance D2 refers to the shortest distance between the vertical projection of the bottom portion 174 of the first contact hole 142 on the substrate 110 and a vertical projection of the bottom portion 173 of second opening region 170 b on the substrate 110. The second distance D2 is the shortest distance between the first contact hole 142 and the second opening region 170 b. In particular, the first distance D1 is different from the second distance D2. In this embodiment, the second distance D2 may be larger than the first distance D1, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. It should be noted that, with the layout design that makes the first distance D1 be different from the second distance D2, the first opening region 170 a, the second opening region 170 b, and the third opening region 170 c are arranged close to one another, so as to improve the resolution of the display device 100.

FIG. 3 is a schematic enlarged view of a part of the display device of FIG. 1. Referring to FIG. 3, a second direction y is parallel to a bearing surface 110 a (as shown in FIG. 2) of the substrate 110. In other words, the second direction y is perpendicular to a normal direction of the bearing surface 110 a of the substrate 110, and the second direction y is perpendicular to the first direction x. The first opening region 170 a has an end point 170 a-1 that is farthest away from the conductive line 152 in the second direction y. A virtual line R1 that passes through the end point 170 a-1 is defined along the second direction y. In this embodiment, the first contact hole 142 and the second contact hole 144 corresponding to the first opening region 170 a are located on different sides of the virtual line R1. Thus, the first opening region 170 a, the second opening region 170 b, and the third opening region 170 c are arranged closer to one another, so as to further improve the resolution of the display device 100.

Referring to FIG. 3, in this embodiment, the first opening region 170 a may have a polygonal shape, and the end point 170 a-1 may be a vertex of the polygonal shape. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto. In other embodiments, the first opening region 170 a may have an oval shape, a circular shape, or other non-polygonal shapes, and the end point 170 a-1 may be a point that is farthest away from the conductive line 152 on the oval shape, the circular shape, or other non-polygonal shapes, and is not necessarily the vertex of the polygonal shape. The following is described with reference to FIG. 4. FIG. 4 is a schematic enlarged view of a part of the display device according to another embodiment of the disclosure. Referring to FIG. 4, the first opening region 170 a has the end point 170 a-1 that is farthest away from the conductive line 152 in the second direction y. The virtual line R1 that passes through the end point 170 a-1 is defined along the second direction y, and the first contact hole 142 and the second contact hole 144 corresponding to the first opening region 170 a are located on different sides of the virtual line R1. Unlike the display device 100, in the display device 100A, the first opening region 170 a and the second opening region 170 b may have oval shapes. The first opening region 170 a has the end point 170 a-1 that is farthest away from the conductive line 152 thereon, and the end point 170 a-1 may not fall on a long axis or a short axis of the oval shape, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. Moreover, in the embodiment of FIG. 4, the conductive line 152 may have inconsistent line widths. For example, the conductive line 152 has a first portion 152-1 and a second portion 152-1, a line width W1 of the first portion 152-1 is greater than a line width W2 of the second portion 152-2, and the spacer 172 overlaps with the first portion 152-1, but the disclosure is not limited thereto.

Referring to FIG. 3, in this embodiment, the first contact hole 142 has a first contour. The first contour of the first contact hole 142 has a first point 142 a and a second point 142 b that are farthest away from each other. The first point 142 a and the second point 142 b define a virtual first extension line K1. The first point 142 a may be closer to the corresponding data line DL than the second point 142 b, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. The second contact hole 144 has a second contour. The second contour of the second contact hole 144 has a third point 144 a and a fourth point 144 b that are farthest away from each other. The third point 144 a and the fourth point 144 b define a virtual second extension line K2. The third point 144 a may be closer to the conductive line 152 than the fourth point 144 b, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. It should be noted that the extension direction of the first extension line K1 is different from the extension direction of the second extension line K2. For example, the extension direction of the first extension line K1 may be perpendicular to the extension direction of the second extension line K2. In other embodiments, an angle may be formed between the extension direction of the first extension line K1 and the extension direction of the second extension line K2, but the disclosure is not limited thereto. In this embodiment, the first contour of the first contact hole 142 has a first oval shape, and the first point 142 a and the second point 142 b that are farthest away from each other on the first contour may be located at two ends of the long axis of the first oval shape.
